riot meadows

"the new transient luminous phenomena runs close to the skin.
majestic satellites that look like bushy pillars of greenery can be found sailing 20 feet above water.
succulent green pods appeared to respond to a light being switched on
and off, to a verbal or radio message, and even to an unspoken thought
in the mind.
a fetal mountainscape of letters, computer printouts and
inter-departmental memos emerged from the red-brown metamorphic rock and
blue-black mutations of old volcanic waste.
the barren country, gilded by evening light as people raise monuments along a thin white line fading into darkness." steve targo aka riot meadows

"Riot Meadows is the handle for a 39-year-old journalist in a Southeastern
Wisconsin tourist town who sculpts sonic environments and creates photo
collages. 'temporal drift tape' is Riot Meadows's debut, recorded over a period of seven years."
